The 146,000-square-foot Goodyear Polymer Center houses both the Department of Polymer Science and the Institute of Polymer Science. It features 12-story and 9-story towers connected by glass-enclosed walkways that serve as areas for informal meeting and discussions. The building houses classrooms, some 60 research and teaching labs, 20 faculty offices, and 25 offices with 200 modules arranged in clusters for students, visiting researchers, and postdoctoral students. The Center also contains the 213-seat Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company Auditorium, the Paul J. Flory Reading Room, and The International Rubber Science Hall of Fame portrait gallery.. The Applied Polymer Research Center and the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Center are all also located in the building.
